Raceroom: rilasciato update di Dicembre

Sector 3 tramite un post sul forum ci informa che è ora disponibile l'update di Dicembre, dal peso di 4.5GB.

Annunciate già in precedenza, fanno la loro comparsa la BMW M4 GT4, la Porsche 718 Cayman GT4, la Porsche 911 GT2 RS Clubsport e l'aggiornamento al modello 2019 della Porsche 911 GT3 R. Ma i nuovi contenuti non finiscono qui: è stata aggiunta la BMW M1 Group 4, è stato aggiunto un nuovo circuito, il Ningbo International Speedpark con ben 5 layout ed è stato aggiunto un nuovo layout al Nurburgring: il Grand Prix Fast Chicane, aggiornamento che arriva gratuitamente per tutti i possessori del circuito.

Tante aggiunte anche dal punto di vista del gameplay, a cominciare con un primo assaggio del ciclo giorno-notte: la progressione va dalla mattina fino alla sera, con la possibilità di scegliere la velocità da x0 a x25.

E' stato aggiornato anche il sistema dei danni, con l'aggiunta di flatspot e danni alle sospensioni, nuove componenti che si staccano e danni al parabrezza.

Inoltre ci sono aggiornamenti alla UI della pagina dei setup, che riflette il futuro look di Raceroom nel 2020, miglioramenti al Force Feedback e anche altri update ad auto e piste già presenti nel gioco. Potete leggere il changelog allegato in calce alla notizia.

• Dedicated server - Added possibility to set a "Message of the Day" that all players will be presented with upon joining. The message can be dismissed by pressing the brake, or leaving the pitlane. The message can be formatted using very basic html tags.
• Damage overhaul - The old settings separating Visual and Mechanical damage have been merged into just one Damage setting which can have the following values:
  - Off (cars will not take any damage)
  - Limited (this is equivalent to having both mechanical and visual damage enabled before today's update)
  - Full (Suspension can get damaged, and tyres can have flat spots after lock-ups)
• Damage model - New deformations and systems for detachables parts, cracks in windshields, etc.
• Damage model - Tyres can now get punctured from collisions or from driving off track, and the probabilities of getting a puncture increase with the wear.
• Car Setup Menu - One of our goals is to modernize the user interface and the first menu that we decided to tackle is the car setup. It is reflecting the future look and feel of the RaceRoom interface as we head into 2020.
  It is divided in three areas, the left will display some telemetry data from your last laps, the center has all the possible changes sorted into tabs, and the right side is dedicated to display helper texts and the steering settings.
• Force Feedback - Added Pneumatic Trail to the physics engine, which results in self-centering forces on corner exits.
• Force Feedback - Added Stationary Friction effects
• Global AI behavioral improvements, with car specific tweaks using a self-learning algorithm.
• Sounds - Improvements to tyre sounds (skid and scrub).
• Added an option to display opponents of other classes in the HUD position bar
• Added an option to force the HUD track map to remain static and not rotate with the player's car orientation
